Definitions
- the present invention concerns metabolically stable and non-immunogen spexin analogs that are completely soluble at physiological pH, and their use for the prevention or the treatment of diseases mediated by the galanin receptor 2 (GALR2).
- GALR2 galanin receptor 2
- the galanin receptor 2 (GALR2), belonging to G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) responsible for transducing a signal within a cell, was isolated from rat hypothalamus extract ( Howard et al., FEBS Letts., 405: 285-290, 1997 ; Smith et al., J. Biol. Chem. 272: 24612-24616, 1997 ; Wang et al., Mol. Pharmacol., 52: 337-343, 1997 ) [1-3].
- GPCRs G-protein coupled receptors
- the distribution of GALR2 is widespread within the CNS but different from that of GALR1.
- the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) expresses the highest level of GALR2 in the rat ( O'Donnell et al., J. Comp. Neurol., 409: 469-481, 1999 ; Waters et Kraus, Neurosci., 95: 265-271, 2000 ) [4, 5], while low levels of GALR2 mRNA were detected in the rat locus coeruleus (LC) and in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) region ( O'Donnell et al., J. Comp. Neurol., 409: 469-481, 1999 ) [4].
- the mouse GALR2 has been reported in the mouse brain but not in the DRN ( Hawes et al., J. Comp. Neurol., 479: 410-423, 2004 ) [6]. Although GALR2 is known to display a function particularly in anxiety, depression, appetite regulation and pain modulation the further determination of its functions would benefit from a stable and selective agonist that acts only at GALR2.
- Neuropeptide Q alias Spexin
- HMM Hidden Markov Model
- spexin is likely involved in reproduction, cardiovascular/renal function, and nociception ( Liu et al., Mol. Cell Endocrinol., 374(1-2) : 65-72, 2013 ; Toll et al., Faseb J., 26 : 947-954, 2012 ) [12, 13].
- spexin receptor Liu et al., Mol. Cell Endocrinol., 374(1-2) : 65-72, 2013 ; Toll et al., Faseb J., 26 : 947-954, 2012
- a water-soluble fluorous labelling reagent that is reactive to primary amine groups in proteins or peptides comprising (OEG) 3 as spacer, is described as being useful for the purification and as well for in vivo labelling, e.g. using C 6 F 17 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CO-.
- labelling adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH(4-11)) and albumin with perfluorooctanate and (OEG) 3 is exemplified ( Qian et al., J. Mass Spectrometry, 46(1): 1-11, 2010 ) [14].
- the present invention relates to novel metabolically stable fluoropeptides derived from the Neuropeptide Q, alias Spexin.
- spexin analogs are non-immunogen, completely hydrosoluble at physiological pH and have a better affinity toward GALR2 than the endogenous Neuropeptide Q they derived from.
- CNS central nervous System
- the present invention relates to a spexin analog having the following peptide of formula (I) : Xaa1-Trp-Xaa2-Xaa3-Gln-Ala-Xaa4-Xaa5-Tyr-Leu-Lys-Gly-Xaa6-Xaa7 (I) wherein :
- Said spexin analog is advantageously metabolically stable, non-immunogen analog, and completely hydrosoluble at physiological pH.
- the expression "completely hydrosoluble at physiological pH” means that the fluoropeptides of the present invention as above described have at least 50% hydrophobic amino acid residues and have an overall positive net charges and a final solubility in aqueous mixture above 100 ⁇ M by visual inspection of the cloudiness of the resulting dispersion and/or solubility measurements by classical physicochemical methods.
- non-immunogen means that the fluoropeptides of the present invention as above described are not derived from any antigens capable of inducing immune response in an animal, including humans.
- Antigens may be derived from a virus, bacterium or mycobacterium, parasite, fungus, or any infectious agent or an autologous antigen or allergen.
- the fluoropeptides described in the invention are not included in any vaccine.
- the expression "metabolically stable” means that the fluoropeptides of the present invention as described above, have at least the half-life of the native peptide, and in particular when linked to a charged linker, have a half-life at least twice longer than native peptide, of at least 20 min or more than one hour, as measured in the stability assay performed in human plasma.
- fluorocarbon includes either, perfluorocarbon (where all hydrogen are replaced by fluor) or, hydrofluorocarbon (which contains both C-H and C-F bonds).
- the fluorocarbon group may comprise one or more chains derived from perfluorocarbon or mixed fluorocarbon/hydrocarbon radicals, and may be saturated or unsaturated, each chain having from 3 to 30 carbon atoms.
- the fluorocarbon group is linked to the peptide through a covalent linkage, for example via NH 2 -group of a lysine of the peptide of formula (I).
- the coupling to the peptide may be achieved through a functional group for linkage to -NH 2 , being naturally present on the lysine of the peptide of formula I, or onto a linker. Modify the nature of the linkage between the fluorocarbon chain and the peptide allows modulating the stability and/or solubility of the peptide. Examples of such linkages between the fluorocarbon chain and the peptide of formula I include amide, hydrazine, disulphide, thioether, ester and oxime bonds.
- a cleavable linker element (peptide or non-peptidic) may be incorporated to permit cleavage of the peptide of formula I from the fluorocarbon group.
- the linker may also be incorporated to assist in the synthesis of the fluoropeptide and to improve its stability and/or solubility, for example by including additional charges. So charged linker may be particularly useful especially if the peptide to which it is linked has no cationic aminoacids (i.e. lysine, histidine, arginine) at its N-terminal end.
- linkers include polyethylene glycol (PEG), or a peptide having about 1 to 6 amino acids, natural on non-natural ones, that may be cleaved by proteolytic enzymes or not.
- amino acids are chosen from the group consisting of basic or aliphatic amino acids, more preferably from histidine, lysine, arginine and glycine.
- the linker may be Arg-Gly-Arg.
- said functional group is a carbonyle -C(O)- that forms an amide bond with the -NH2 of a lysine.
- the formula of the fluorocarbon group is perfluoroundecanoic acid of formula (A) or alternatively is 2H,2H,2H,3H,3H-perfluoroundecanoic acid of formula (B) or alternatively is heptadecafluoro-pentadecanoic acid of formula (C)
- reducing the length of the fluorocarbon group of formula (II), for example by deleting at least two CF 2 groups, preferably at least four CF 2 groups, can increase the solubility and/or plasmatic stability of the peptide of formula (I) to which it is linked.
- the spexin analog of formula (I) as above defined is further covalently linked to an acetyl group and/or an acyl group -C(O)R where R is a C 7-30 alkyl.
- R is a C 7-30 alkyl.
- Said fluorocarbon group or further acetyl and:or acyl group can be linked at the N-terminal part of the peptide directly through a lysine, either on the alpha-amino or the epsilon-amino groups.
- the present invention relates to a spexin analog selected from the group consisting of :
- the present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition
- a pharmaceutical composition comprising a spexin analog of formula (I) as above described, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
- Such pharmaceutical composition is prepared for administration to a subject in need thereof and which include therapeutically effective amount of one or more of the metabolically stable spexin analog(s) of the present invention.
- the therapeutically effective amount of a metabolically stable spexin analog will depend on the route of administration, the type of mammal that is the subject and the physical characteristics of the subject being treated. Specific factors that can be taken into account include disease severity and stage, weight, diet and concurrent medication. The relationship of these factors to determining a therapeutically effective amount of the disclosed compounds is well known and understood by those of ordinary skill in the art.
- Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or vehicles are also well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Standard excipients include solutions such as sterile water, saline, and buffered solutions at physiological pH.
- pharmaceutical excipients include thickeners, diluents, buffers, preservatives, surface active agents and the like in addition to the spexin analog of choice.
- the pharmaceutically composition can be prepared in the form of aqueous solutions, lyophilized or other dried formulations (powder, granules, lozenges, etc). In general the nature of the excipient or vehicle will depend on the particular mode of administration being employed.
- the pharmaceutically composition can be administered intravenously, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, intracerebroventricularly, orally, intraperitoneally, etc... or in an aerosol form.
- Total daily dose of a peptide administered to a subject in single or divided doses may be in amounts, for example, of from about 0.001 to about 100mg/kg body weight daily, preferably 0.01 to 10mg/kg/day.
- Dosage unit compositions may contain such amounts of such submultiples thereof as may be used to make up the daily dose. It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors including the body weight, general health, sex, diet, time and route of administration, rates of absorption and excretion, combination with other drugs and the severity of the particular disease being treated.

Description
- The present invention concerns metabolically stable and non-immunogen spexin analogs that are completely soluble at physiological pH, and their use for the prevention or the treatment of diseases mediated by the galanin receptor 2 (GALR2).
- The galanin receptor 2 (GALR2), belonging to G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) responsible for transducing a signal within a cell, was isolated from rat hypothalamus extract (Howard et al., FEBS Letts., 405: 285-290, 1997; Smith et al., J. Biol. Chem. 272: 24612-24616, 1997; Wang et al., Mol. Pharmacol., 52: 337-343, 1997) [1-3]. This receptor couples to GI/Go, Gq/G11 or G12 G-protein types, which means that this subtype of galanin receptors can mediate stimulatory as well as inhibitory effects. The distribution of GALR2 is widespread within the CNS but different from that of GALR1. The dorsal root ganglia (DRG) expresses the highest level of GALR2 in the rat (O'Donnell et al., J. Comp. Neurol., 409: 469-481, 1999; Waters et Kraus, Neurosci., 95: 265-271, 2000) [4, 5], while low levels of GALR2 mRNA were detected in the rat locus coeruleus (LC) and in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) region (O'Donnell et al., J. Comp. Neurol., 409: 469-481, 1999) [4]. The mouse GALR2 has been reported in the mouse brain but not in the DRN (Hawes et al., J. Comp. Neurol., 479: 410-423, 2004) [6]. Although GALR2 is known to display a function particularly in anxiety, depression, appetite regulation and pain modulation the further determination of its functions would benefit from a stable and selective agonist that acts only at GALR2.
- Neuropeptide Q, alias Spexin, is a hormone recently discovered by Mirabeau et al. (Genome Res., 17: 320-327, 2007) [7]. The authors developed a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based on algorithm searches that integrates several peptide hormone sequence features to identify novel peptide hormone. The predicted mature spexin peptide sequence of 14 amino acids flanked by dibasic cleavage sites is evolutionarily conserved across vertebrate species. Spexin expression in brain regions and peripheral tissues of various mammals suggests multiple physiological functions for spexin. Recently spexin was implicated in regulation of feeding behaviors and related metabolic processes (Walewski et al., Obesity 22 : 1643-1652, 2014) [11]. In addition, spexin is likely involved in reproduction, cardiovascular/renal function, and nociception (Liu et al., Mol. Cell Endocrinol., 374(1-2) : 65-72, 2013 ; Toll et al., Faseb J., 26 : 947-954, 2012) [12, 13]. However the precise roles of spexin in these processes were not well understood due a lack of information on the spexin receptor.
- More recently it has been found that spexin is an endogenous ligand that acts at GALR2 and GALR3 but not at GALR1 (Kim et al., Endocrinol., 155: 1864-1873, 2014) [8]. Based upon the GALR2/spexin interaction, it has been proposed to develop screening assays for agents modulating the activity of the GALR2 and diagnostic assays, as well as kits for performing the same (International Application
WO 2012/042455 ) [9]. - Considering the interaction between Spexin and galanin receptors, development of more stable and subtype-selective GALR2 agonists would lead to marked progress in treatment of galanin receptors-related diseases or disorders, in particular of GALR2-related diseases or GALR2-related disorders. Therefore it has been developed spexin-based human GALR2 specific agonists with increased stability in serum and anxiolytic effect in mice (Reyes-Alcaraz et al., Scientific Reports, 6: 21453, DOI: 10.1038/srep21453, February 24, 2016) [10].
- A water-soluble fluorous labelling reagent that is reactive to primary amine groups in proteins or peptides comprising (OEG)3 as spacer, is described as being useful for the purification and as well for in vivo labelling, e.g. using C6F17-CH2-CH2-CO-. However only labelling adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH(4-11)) and albumin with perfluorooctanate and (OEG)3 is exemplified (Qian et al., J. Mass Spectrometry, 46(1): 1-11, 2010) [14].
- The present invention relates to novel metabolically stable fluoropeptides derived from the Neuropeptide Q, alias Spexin. Such spexin analogs are non-immunogen, completely hydrosoluble at physiological pH and have a better affinity toward GALR2 than the endogenous Neuropeptide Q they derived from. There is a therapeutic interest of using said metabolically stable analogs as therapeutic agents useful for the treatment of GALR2-related diseases or GALR2-disorders, for example central nervous System (CNS) disorders or cardiovascular disorders.
- In one aspect, the present invention relates to a spexin analog having the following peptide of formula (I) :
Xaa1-Trp-Xaa2-Xaa3-Gln-Ala-Xaa4-Xaa5-Tyr-Leu-Lys-Gly-Xaa6-Xaa7 (I)
wherein : - Xaa1 is Asn, Pro or Ala or hydrogen ;
- Xaa2 is Thr or Pro ;
- Xaa3 is Pro or Ala ;
- Xaa4 is Met or Ala ;
- Xaa5 is Leu or Ala ;
- Xaa6 is Ala, Pro or NH2 ;
- Xaa7 is Gln, Pro, Ala or NH2, when Xaa6 is not NH2,wherein said peptide of formula (I) (SEQ ID NO: 1) is covalently linked to a fluorocarbon group of formula (II):
CmFn-CyHx(L)
wherein m=3 to 30, n≤2m+1, y=0 to 2, x≤2y, (m+y)=3 to 30, and L, which is optional, is a linker selected from the group consisting of a PEG or a peptide having from 1 to 6 amino acids, directly or through a linker selected from the group consisting of a PEG or a peptide having from 1 to 6 amino acids, either on the alpha-amino or the epsilon-amino group of the lysine of the peptide of formula (I), and when the linker is one lysine, the fluorocarbon group is linked to the epsilon-amino group of said lysine. - Said spexin analog is advantageously metabolically stable, non-immunogen analog, and completely hydrosoluble at physiological pH.
- As used herein, the expression "completely hydrosoluble at physiological pH" means that the fluoropeptides of the present invention as above described have at least 50% hydrophobic amino acid residues and have an overall positive net charges and a final solubility in aqueous mixture above 100 µM by visual inspection of the cloudiness of the resulting dispersion and/or solubility measurements by classical physicochemical methods.
- As used herein, the expression "non-immunogen" means that the fluoropeptides of the present invention as above described are not derived from any antigens capable of inducing immune response in an animal, including humans. Antigens may be derived from a virus, bacterium or mycobacterium, parasite, fungus, or any infectious agent or an autologous antigen or allergen. The fluoropeptides described in the invention are not included in any vaccine.
- As used herein, the expression "metabolically stable" means that the fluoropeptides of the present invention as described above, have at least the half-life of the native peptide, and in particular when linked to a charged linker, have a half-life at least twice longer than native peptide, of at least 20 min or more than one hour, as measured in the stability assay performed in human plasma.
- As used herein, the term "fluorocarbon" includes either, perfluorocarbon (where all hydrogen are replaced by fluor) or, hydrofluorocarbon (which contains both C-H and C-F bonds).
- The fluorocarbon group may comprise one or more chains derived from perfluorocarbon or mixed fluorocarbon/hydrocarbon radicals, and may be saturated or unsaturated, each chain having from 3 to 30 carbon atoms. The fluorocarbon group is linked to the peptide through a covalent linkage, for example via NH2-group of a lysine of the peptide of formula (I). The coupling to the peptide may be achieved through a functional group for linkage to -NH2, being naturally present on the lysine of the peptide of formula I, or onto a linker. Modify the nature of the linkage between the fluorocarbon chain and the peptide allows modulating the stability and/or solubility of the peptide. Examples of such linkages between the fluorocarbon chain and the peptide of formula I include amide, hydrazine, disulphide, thioether, ester and oxime bonds.
- Optionally, a cleavable linker element (peptide or non-peptidic) may be incorporated to permit cleavage of the peptide of formula I from the fluorocarbon group. The linker may also be incorporated to assist in the synthesis of the fluoropeptide and to improve its stability and/or solubility, for example by including additional charges. So charged linker may be particularly useful especially if the peptide to which it is linked has no cationic aminoacids (i.e. lysine, histidine, arginine) at its N-terminal end. Examples of linkers include polyethylene glycol (PEG), or a peptide having about 1 to 6 amino acids, natural on non-natural ones, that may be cleaved by proteolytic enzymes or not. Preferably said amino acids are chosen from the group consisting of basic or aliphatic amino acids, more preferably from histidine, lysine, arginine and glycine. For example, the linker may be Arg-Gly-Arg.
- Thus, the fluorocarbon group of the spexin analog of the present invention has chemical formula (II) CmFn-CyHx(L) wherein m=3 to 30, n≤2m+1, y=0 to 2, x≤2y, (m+y)=3 to 30, and L, which is optional, is a functional group leading to covalent attachment to the peptide. For example said functional group is a carbonyle -C(O)- that forms an amide bond with the -NH2 of a lysine.
- According to a particular embodiment of the above formula II of the fluorocarbon, m=5 to 15, preferably m=5 to 15 and y=1 to 4. According to another particular embodiment, the formula of the fluorocarbon group is perfluoroundecanoic acid of formula (A)
- In these cases it is to be noted that reducing the length of the fluorocarbon group of formula (II), for example by deleting at least two CF2 groups, preferably at least four CF2 groups, can increase the solubility and/or plasmatic stability of the peptide of formula (I) to which it is linked.
- According to a particular embodiment, the spexin analog of formula (I) as above defined is further covalently linked to an acetyl group and/or an acyl group -C(O)R where R is a C7-30 alkyl. For example it has the following formula (III) CH3-CyHx-C(O)- wherein y=7 to 30, preferably y=10 to 20, more preferably y=14, and x=2y.
- Said fluorocarbon group or further acetyl and:or acyl group can be linked at the N-terminal part of the peptide directly through a lysine, either on the alpha-amino or the epsilon-amino groups.
- According to a particular embodiment of a fluoropeptide of formula (I), the present invention relates to a spexin analog selected from the group consisting of :
- i) CF3(CF2)7(CH2)2C(O)-Asn-Trp-Thr-Pro-Gln-Ala-Met-Leu-Tyr-Leu-Lys-Gly-Ala-Gln (compound LE144; SEQ ID NO: 2) ;

- iii) Acetyl-Asn-Trp-Thr-Pro-Gln-Ala-Met-Leu-Tyr-Leu-Lys-Gly-Ala-Gln-Lys(C(O)(CH2)2(CF2)7CF3) (compound LE128; SEQ ID NO: 4);
- iv) Acetyl-Asn-Trp-Thr-Pro-Gln-Ala-Met-Leu-Tyr-Leu-Lys-Gly-Ala-Gln-Lys(Arg-Gly-Arg-(C(0)(CH2)2(CF2)7CF3)) (compound LE146; SEQ ID NO: 5);
- v) a spexin analog with an amino acid sequence having at least 80% identity with the sequence of (i), (ii), (ii) or (iv).
- In another aspect, the present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a spexin analog of formula (I) as above described, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
- Such pharmaceutical composition is prepared for administration to a subject in need thereof and which include therapeutically effective amount of one or more of the metabolically stable spexin analog(s) of the present invention. The therapeutically effective amount of a metabolically stable spexin analog will depend on the route of administration, the type of mammal that is the subject and the physical characteristics of the subject being treated. Specific factors that can be taken into account include disease severity and stage, weight, diet and concurrent medication. The relationship of these factors to determining a therapeutically effective amount of the disclosed compounds is well known and understood by those of ordinary skill in the art.

In general the nature of the excipient or vehicle will depend on the particular mode of administration being employed. The pharmaceutically composition can be administered intravenously, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, intracerebroventricularly, orally, intraperitoneally, etc... or in an aerosol form.
- The dosing is selected by those of ordinary skill in the art so that a therapeutically effect is achieved, and depends on the route of administration and the dosage form that is used. Total daily dose of a peptide administered to a subject in single or divided doses may be in amounts, for example, of from about 0.001 to about 100mg/kg body weight daily, preferably 0.01 to 10mg/kg/day. Dosage unit compositions may contain such amounts of such submultiples thereof as may be used to make up the daily dose. It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors including the body weight, general health, sex, diet, time and route of administration, rates of absorption and excretion, combination with other drugs and the severity of the particular disease being treated.

- Evaluation of the affinity of compounds for the human galanin GAL2 receptor in transfected CHO cells determined in a radioligand binding assay: Experimental protocol : Cells membrane homogenates (4 µg protein) are incubated for 120 min at 22°C with 0.05 nM [125I]galanin in the absence or presence of the test compound in a buffer containing 25 mM Tris-HCI (pH 7.4), 10 mM MgCl2 and 0.5% BSA. Nonspecific binding is determined in the presence of 1 µM porcine galanin. Following incubation, the samples are filtered rapidly under vacuum through glass fiber filters (GF/B, Packard) presoaked with 0.3% PEI and rinsed several times with ice-cold 50 mM Tris-HCI using a 96-sample cell harvester (Unifilter, Packard). The filters are dried then counted for radioactivity in a scintillation counter (Topcount, Packard) using a scintillation cocktail (Microscint 0, Packard). The results are expressed as a percent inhibition of the control radioligand specific binding. The standard reference compound is porcine galanin, which is tested in each experiment at several concentrations to obtain a competition curve from which its IC50 is calculated.

Agonist-evoked increases in intracellular calcium were recorded over time (5 sec intervals over 220 sec) at 37 °C by using a Flexstation III (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). Fluorescence signals were recorded at 520 nm (excitation at 485 nm). Peak amplitudes were normalized to baseline and maximal fluorescence level elicited by 20 µM digitonin, and EC50 were calculated with Graphpad/Prism software.
- The solubility of each spexin analogs was evaluated after dissolution in water to reach 100µM. The resulting solution was vortexed 1min following by 1min in bath sonication. Solubility was then assessed by visual observation of the resulting dispersion (Clear/Cloudy and presence of particulates).
- This procedure is designed to determine the stability of a test compound in blood or plasma from human or animal species in a 96-well plate format. The test compound is quantified at 5 time points by HPLC-MS/MS analysis. Test concentration: 1 µM with a final DMSO concentration of 0.5 %. Experimental protocol : Blood or plasma are pre-warmed at 37 °C water bath for 5 min, followed by addition of the test compound. The incubation is performed in a 37 °C water bath for 2 h. An aliquot of the incubation mixture is transferred to acetonitrile at 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 h, respectively. Samples are then mixed and centrifuged. Supernatants are used for HPLC-MS/MS analysis. Reference compounds Propoxycaine and propantheline are tested simultaneously with the test compound in each assay. Analytical methods Samples are analyzed by HPLC-MS/MS using selected reaction monitoring. The HPLC system consists of a binary LC pump with autosampler, a C-18 column, and a gradient. Conditions may be adjusted as necessary. Data analysis Peak areas corresponding to the test compound are recorded. The compound remaining (%) is calculated by comparing the peak area at each time point to time zero. The half-life is calculated from the slope of the initial linear range of the logarithmic curve of compound remaining (%) vs. time, assuming first order kinetics.
- The results are presented in table 1 below:
Table 1 Peptide Affinity % of inhibition at 100 nM EC50 Ca2+ production (nM) Solubility in water (µM) Human plasma stability (t1/2, min) SPEXIN 68.3% 37 ± 18 >100 151 LE-144 100.0 % 0.038 ± 0.008 >100 150 LE-130 98.4 % 0.089 ± 0.04 >100 342 LE-128 - 2.3 ± 4.0 - - LE-146 - 8.4 ± 0.7 - - - The results show that the spexin analogs tested exhibit a better affinity and efficiency than the native peptide (spexin), and at least the same or better hydrosolubility and/or plasma stability.
- The propensity of spexin analogs to bind to Eppendorf protein LoBind tubes was evaluated.
- A solution of 10 µM of spexin analogs in solution in HEPES/BSA buffer was added to Eppendorf protein LoBind tubes, stirred for 5 min and vortexed for 2 min. The supernatant was removed from the tube and acetonitrile was added to dissolve the compound adsorbed to the plastic. The amount of peptide recovered was then evaluated by HPLC-MS/MS following the same protocol than above described for plasma stability analysis. The non-specific adsorption of peptides (%) was calculated by comparing the peak area of each compound recovered to that obtained with the same compound in DMSO (prevent the adsorption of the compounds to plastic).
- The results are presented in table 2 below:
Table 2 Peptide Non-specific adsorption of peptide (%) RP-HPLC, retention time (min) SPEXIN 0 8.2 LE-144 42 13.6 LE-130 15 10.9 - These results show that the presence of the cationic linker enables to lower the non-specific binding interactions of the fluorospexin to the Eppendorf protein LoBind tubes.
- In addition, the RP-HPLC retention time of each compound highlights the importance of the linker to increase the global aqueous solubility of fluorospexin as compared to native spexin.
- The effects were examined by using the GloSensor™ cAMP Assay according to manufacturer recommendations (Promega, Madison WI, USA) with a few modifications. HEK293 cells selected for stable expression of human GALR1 were transfected with pGloSensor™-22F using Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham MA, USA), harvested from culture dish the day following transfection and resuspended (106 cells per mL) in physiological Hepes buffer (10 mM HEPES, 0.4 mM NaH2PO4, 137.5 mM NaCl, 1.25 mM MgCl2, 1.25 mM CaCl2, 6 mM KCI, 5,6mM glucose and 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, pH 7.4) supplemented with 1 mM D-Luciferin (Synchem UG & Co. KG, Felsberg-Altenburg, Germany). Following pre-equilibration for 2 h at 25°C, D-luciferin-loaded cells were distributed (100,000 cells per well) in a white 96-well plate and kinetic recordings of their luminescence level were acquired using a FlexStation II (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale CA, USA). Compounds to be tested were injected at
various concentrations 10 min before forskolin addition (0.5µM final concentration) and readings were pursued for 30 min. Experiments were conducted at 25°C in the presence of 0.1 mM IBMX to prevent the degradation of cAMP by phospodiesterases. - The results are presented in table 3 below:
Table 3: activity of galanin, spexin and spexin derivatives on HEK293 cells stably expressing GalR1 compound EC50 ± SEM (nM) % of activity at 1 µM Galanin 0.8 ± 0.4 100% Spexin n.d. 0 LE-128 n.d. 0 LE-130 n.d. 0 LE-144 n.d. 0 LE-148 n.d. 0 n.d.: not determined - The results show that, as expected, galanin displayed full agonist activity at GalR1 with an EO50 of 0.8 nM. Spexin and spexin derivatives displayed no agonist activity at GalR1 up to 1 µM.
- Tail immersion test: Nociception tests were performed on male, awake C57BL/6N male mice (25-30g weight; Janvier Labs, France). Animals were housed in groups of five per cage and kept under a 12h/12 h light/dark cycle at 21 ± 1°C with ad libitum access to food and water. Experiments were performed during the light-on phase of the cycle. Mice were habituated to the testing room and equipment and handled for 1 week before starting behavioural experiments. The nociceptive thermal threshold of mice was determined using the tail immersion test. Mice were restrained in a grid pocket and their tail was immersed in a thermostated water bath. The latency (in sec) for tail withdrawal from hot water (47 ± 0.5 °C) was taken as a measure of the nociceptive response. In the absence of any nociceptive reaction, a cut-off value of 25 sec was set to avoid tissue damage.
- The results are shown in
figure 1 . - The results show that intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of 10nmol of spexin elicited an analgesic effect at 15 and 30 min after injection as revealed by a significant increase in tail immersion withdrawal latencies of the animals compared to baseline threshold (from 10,45 ± 0,53 sec basal threshold to 15,38 ± 0,57 sec at 15min and 13,06 ±0,87 sec at 30min; p<0,01 and p<0,05, respectively).
- Icv injection of 1nmol and 0,1nmol of LE-144 evoked the same statistically significant analgesia after 15min and 30min (1nmol ; baseline : 10,12 ± 0,59sec, 15min : 15,58 ±0,61 sec, 30min : 13,94 ±0,75 sec; 0,1nmol ; baseline : 9,99 ±0,5 sec, 15min : 14,26 ± 0,93 sec, 30min : 14,06 ± 0,34 sec).
